Cowher said that he thinks that the Steelers got faster in the offseason.

“They got faster; Dri Archer, I like the pickup of LeGarrette Blount. I think even the offensive line, bringing Mike Munchak in I think will help immensely,” Cowher said. “I think the big key for them is Markus Wheaton has got to make the next step.”

“There’s a lot of things that you foresee in life, and seeing Joey Porter on the sidelines coaching is not one that I saw,” Cowher said. “But, you know what, I think if Joey just continues to take that passion that he has for the game, I think he has a lot of insight, a lot he can give to these young guys that they have right now.”
